Rust NYC's Digital Asset Adoption Special

Join us on Wednesday, March 25th at our sponsor Materialize. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. to give attendees plenty of time to grab pizza and socialize, and the talk begin at 7:15 p.m. Following the success of the UnConf we've absorbed all of your feedback and a one off special with two incredible speakers in town for both the EY Digital Asset Conference & Blockworks Digital Asset Summit!

Speaker, Paul Brody is Chairman of the Enterprise Ethereum Alliance- Nightfall is a ZKZK roll-up that works on Ethereum compatible networks. It’s in currently in testnet on Plume and CELO and in development for Starknet. Its companion application is called Starlight and between the two technologies, people can build & run complex, multi-party privacy-enabled transactions on public blockchains.

Speaker, Zach Obront is Co-Founder & CTO at Etherealize – One of the biggest challenges for blockchain adoption is privacy. The solution is Zero Knowledge Proofs. While this technology was once exclusively in the domain of cryptographers, the advent of zkVMs means that any Rust developer is just a few hours away from leveraging this tool. Zach will walk through the basics of zkVMs and show how they can be used to create privacy on public blockchains.

Lawrence Harvey is Rust NYC's official recruitment partner, with Ross & Tessa providing support as a co-organizer and financial support.

The space is generously sponsored by our partner Materialize.
